You can pick up discounted show tickets at the Times Square TKTS booth, a 5-minute walk from The Muse. Manhattan's famed Restaurant Row, a quarter-mile west, includes well-known eateries like B. Smith, Becco, and Orso--perfect for a pre-theater dinner. Rockefeller Center and shopping on Fifth Avenue are also a quarter-mile away.
Designed by architect and set designer David Rockwell, The Muse welcomes you into an artistically appointed lobby with a dual-sided fireplace and a dreamlike forest installation. Leather benches and upholstered chairs are arranged to encourage friendly chats over complimentary morning coffee and tea. In the evening, the lobby's living room is the setting for a complimentary wine reception, which also includes tea, artisan chocolates, and energy bars. Sip a glass of Syrah and check your email--complimentary wireless Internet access is available throughout the hotel.
NIOS, the onsite restaurant, serves American comfort food with a creative twist. Ask the restaurant’s Master Sommelier for wine advice, or sample the signature cocktails conjured up by the Master Mixologist.
Guestrooms help you unwind in style and comfort.

The TV also includes the hotel's dedicated yoga channel. You can inquire at the front desk for a tote bag with a yoga mat and other gear. In-room safes accommodate laptops.

Modern, clean and comfortable hotel close to shows, shopping and Central Park. Restaurant menu somewhat limited and gym is tiny, but service was excellent and room was quiet, inviting and spacious. Pricy but its NYC mid-week so not surprising.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Can't say enough good things!!"
The staff helped us with everything that we needed and were prompt and courteous. My girlfriend left her passport at the hotel (it somehow made it into our shopping bag trash!) and the hotel not only searched and found it but had someone bring it to her at the airport. I can't say enough good things about this hotel and most importantly it's staff! […] ! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"It's great"
I'm partial to Kimpton Hotels and have stayed at The Muse before. The free wine happy hour, the exceedingly nice staff, the location, the palatial (by NY standards) rooms (depending on which one you get), the free wifi and mini-bar goodies (last two for Kimpton members) all add up to a great experience. As with the last time, the room they gave us first […] night was not terrific and as with the last time, they moved us to a better room for the remainder of our stay. We wanted to stay close to midtown west side, so location was perfect, though not picturesque. Kimpton keeps getting more expensive, which doesn't endear them to me, but I like their style and their staff. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Dirty Hotel"
We decided to try this Hotel bc of its close proximity to Times Square. We arrived and noticed that our sheets were stained. The maid came to replace the sheets with another set of sheets that were also stained. This time with urine. The hotel staff manager then brought up another set with a huge stain on the inside. After 3 stained sheets we spoke […] to the hotel manager Melissa who offered no explaination for the stains and a mediocre compensation for our troubles at best. She actually said that they could call other Kimpton properties but they could not guarantee that the sheets would not be stained. We were completely shocked. I definitely would not recommend this hotel. Pay a little more and walk to Times Square. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Less a"mused" than I had hoped"
Usually love the Kimpton chain with my well-behaved kids...whimsical decor and pet friendly surroundings usually ensure they will feel comfortable and not stuffy. Unfortunately, the Muse just felt tired. Room was fair, beds uncomfortable, poor lighting, temperature hard to control. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. Location is great if you […] like to be near the action of Times Sq. For the price, there are better choices. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Our first trip to NYC was wonderful! The hotel was just as we had hoped. Wilmer,the concierge was amazing! We wanted for nothing! The staff were warm and welcoming.the room was large and immaculate.

"Blizzard friendly"
I scheduled this trip over a month back with the intent of seeing a show and spending a couple of nights in NYC. Of all the days for a blizzard to hit, the friday of our arrival was the day. We never would have known. The service at the hotel was great and the NY streets were kept clean by people constantly pushing snow out of the way. I'm definitely […] coming back to The Muse in the warmer months. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Love, love, love this hotel!!"
We visit NYC many times a year and always stay at different hotels in the Time Square area and The Muse is by far our favorite!! We stayed this weekend for my birthday and we can't wait to go back.

"Great find"
We came to New York to shop, see a play and go to the 9/11 Memorial. The Muse was in a great location. We are walkers by nature and were rewarded by the concierge for our over 8 mile walk on Saturday with two free drinks in the bar. The layout of the rooms make it a very quiet hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best staff and accommodations in Midtown"
Great location-we walkedto theaters and easily to Rockefeller Center and for the advid walker, the Metropolitan Museum is within an hour. The staff, especially Marc, gave us great restaurant suggestions and directions. The wine receptions are just one example of this hotels graceful, welcoming staff. We loved that well behaved pets were welcome--including […] their own sign in and water bowl. We will be back for business, family and "girls' weekend" travel! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Great hotel for business or vacation."
I am a frequent business traveler. The rooms here are nice sized compared to most New York hotels. The location is convenient. It is close to Time Square but is on a quiet street. The bed was comfortable with high thread count sheets. The wine reception in the lobby could be handled better. There are not many seats so many have to stand.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Exactly what we hoped for on New Years Eve!"
The staff was over the top professional, responsive to everything, and friendly. We were there during New Years and they did an awesome job with security. Our room was beautiful and clean.

"Unhappy family travel"
Upon arriving in our room , the toilet was never cleaned, urine was all over the front of toilet. Asked for a liner for our ice bucket took over 1/2 hour, we actually went to front desk , and they said to go back and wait in our room, they didn't have anything to help us. We were on the 5th floor and you hear all the road traffic which is horrible, […] especially because the garbage is picked up at night. It was the talk on the elevator, everyone comparing how bad the noise effect was. The most pleasant person was the doorman. (Dave). So accommodating, offering umbrellas when raining, and restaurant selections. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Pros: location, attentive service, good little store/deli next store. Cons: tiny room, could feel the springs through the mattress, pet friendly hotel(we suffer from allergies)Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great locations and service."
This is a great a great hotel for location and services. They do need to sound proof much better. We had a room on the front of the hotel and the trash gets picked up starting sometimes a 3 am and lasts for over an1 1/2 hours (lots of trash in NYC) - we heard it every day. Not the hotels fault but they should warn folks and maybe spend some $ on sound […] proofing. If you stay soon request a room at the ear of the hotel and high up.
